A Simple Example

In order to decode a v1.1 or v2 consent string automatically we can do:

from iab_tcf import decode

consent = decode("CO5VTlWO5VTlWH1AAAENAwCwAIAAAAAAAIAAAAoAAAAA.YAAAAAAAAAA")

print(consent.version) # prints 2

If we want to improve performance and we already know it's going to be a v2 consent string we can do:

from iab_tcf import decode_v2

consent = decode_v2("CO5VTlWO5VTlWH1AAAENAwCwAIAAAAAAAIAAAAoAAAAA.YAAAAAAAAAA")

print(consent.version) # prints 2

Tests

In order to run the tests locally we can do:

pip install -r requirements-test.txt
pytest -v .
